*Hi! Want to check in?*
In the year 2XXX, a meteor falls, the zombie virus rages, soil and water sources are polluted, the climate is abnormally reversed, and humanity's homeland is slowl...
Just when Shi Jiu was indulging in the joy of upgrading and looking forward to what good things the system would bring him.
On the other side, Chen Hua and his team hid here and there, trying their best to avoid zombies and rush back to Longhua base, but they were still ambushed and attacked by many zombies along the way. Finally, they returned to the base safely after a few hours.
"I'm finally back. It wasn't easy!" Zhao Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the gate of the base. Every time he came out, he was in danger of death. Living in this world is a very difficult thing in itself.
"You guys go back and rest for a while. Meet at the service hall in two hours. Li Xia and I will go sell this stuff first. We'll split the profits equally based on investment. How do you do that?"
"I have no problem, this is fine." Li Xia also agreed.
The other members agreed and went back to rest. Chen Hua and Li Xia went to the trading area specially set up at the base to sell the goods. However, before selling, they had to take the goods out of the bag. The bracelets could not be exposed at the moment, for fear of being accused of possessing them.
"Li Xia, have you ever thought about what to do in the future?" Chen Hua first bought a big bag, secretly moved all the things out in the corner, and suddenly asked Li Xia.
"Captain, you mean..." Li Xia was still a little confused. What else could he do? Isn't it just killing zombies in exchange for supplies?
"I don't think I'll be captain for much longer." Chen Hua had thought clearly when he rejected Sun He last night. While Sun He's father had indeed saved his life, that debt had been negated in the fight with the zombies yesterday. He had saved Sun He's life, but given his family's influence at Longhua Base, he couldn't stay.
"But, it's obviously him..." Li Xia reacted and stood up for him.
"Shh, stop talking. Let's sell these things first. It's not good to owe the team members money." Chen Hua shook his head to stop him from continuing.
The two of them came to a trading area and put out the instant noodles, sausages, mineral water and underwear. They were not afraid of being robbed, after all, they all lived here, and the two psychics were not pushovers either. Although they were not very strong, they were still good at fighting.
Before they sat down and waited, someone came up to them and asked the price, "How much are these?" At first glance, they all looked like good stuff, especially the ham sausage. Wow, it was so big that it was really rare to see one.
"Instant noodles and mineral water are 20 crystal cores each, and sausages and underwear are 40 crystal cores each." Chen Hua sold these things for four times the price. The function of crystal cores has not been researched yet, and they are basically worthless. If you buy them too cheaply, you may be afraid of arousing suspicion. Now it is basically barter. If you like something, you can discuss what to exchange it for. Basically, no one wants crystal cores.
"You want a crystal core?" The other party noticed something was wrong. "That thing is useless, right? Why don't you exchange it for other supplies?"
Chen Hua didn't let him ask any more, "If you want it, pay for it with the crystal core. If you don't want it, don't block me from selling things!"
"Buy, buy, buy, these things..." The man originally wanted to buy everything, but after calculating that he didn't have enough crystal cores, he took a step back and asked for a few of each. "I want five of each, and the underwear, I want the men's style."
There are only 600 crystal cores here. The man took out a purse and said, "No need to change. There should be exactly 600 crystal cores in here." Then he took out a large luggage bag and said, "Put them in there later."
Chen Hua took out all the crystal cores and counted them for a long time. "The number is right. Li Xia, fill it for him."
The man picked up the bag and disappeared around the corner. The next buyer also came up. Many people expressed doubts about the fact that they only accepted crystal cores, but there was no conclusion on this matter. It was people's freedom to want what they wanted, and crystal cores were not worth much.
Many people think they are stupid for selling these materials. They wish there would be more such things. Now there is no production method and everything is in short supply.
The items were sold out very quickly, and many people kept asking them if they had any more stock, where the goods came from, etc. There were so many people that they almost couldn't leave.
The goods he brought back were sold for a total of 2,000 crystal cores. His own purse could not even hold them all, so he had to borrow Li Xia's purse to carry them. If Shi Jiu knew that Chen Hua made so much money from reselling, she would probably be heartbroken. She had earned less than a thousand in the past two days, which was not as much as she could have earned from reselling.
However, Chen Hua knew that this was the only time. With the magic of the hotel, it would surely become known to people very soon, and even if it was resold in the future, it would not be able to be sold at such a high price.
The time came quickly and the team members found Chen Hua and Li Xia in the service hall.
"Captain, how is it?" As soon as Zhao Jin stepped into the gate, he saw the deputy captain Li Xia's happy face. He already had a rough estimate in his mind, so he specifically asked Chen Hua about the situation of that batch of goods.
"Not bad." Chen Hua said calmly, but his hands were not slow. He distributed 90 crystal cores to each member. According to the amount of investment, they each invested 30 crystal cores, and now they can receive 90 crystal cores in profit. Together with what they gave out before, it is 120 crystal cores.
He and Li Xia each invested 180 crystal cores, and the profit was 480 crystal cores, so they got a total of 660 crystal cores. If you calculate carefully, it is really a huge profit. This amount of money can be used to stay in a hotel for a long time.
"Oh my God, so much!" The members were stunned after hearing their profits. They thought it was good enough to get their money back, but they didn't expect it to be several times more.
"Now let me tell you one last thing. Our team is about to disband." After dividing the profits, Chen Hua dropped a shocking bombshell.
"Why?"
"Captain, why?"
"What happened to disband? Weren't they doing fine before?"
The team members were all confused. It was not easy to join a team and get along well with each other. Moreover, the atmosphere in their team was quite harmonious, and the captain was not the kind of person who would withhold supplies from the team members. Now that he wanted to disband the team, it was definitely huge bad news for the team members who currently needed to fight zombies and form a team to obtain supplies.
"I just offended Sun He this morning. Although he hasn't come back yet, all the information his father gave him was transparent. Now that we're back and he hasn't shown up, the people over there are definitely going to come after me. To put it bluntly, he'll never come back, and his family won't let me go. What's more, if he comes back safely and exaggerates things, we won't gain anything."
Chen Hua analyzed the current situation. "Li Xia and I are psychics. We plan to stay in that hotel and not live here at the base anymore. If you want to come with me, meet here in two hours. I'll give you some time to think it over. I won't force you. It's indeed difficult for ordinary people to live out there. I'm worried that they'll take their anger out on you in the future."
Chen Hua's worries were well-founded. Just looking at someone like Sun He, one would know what his family situation was like. The members all nodded silently. They knew all these things very well. After a moment of silence, Li Xia couldn't help but speak out.
"You all should go back and think about it. If you're interested, come over when the time comes. If you still want to live here, that's fine. Just be careful. If you really can't stay here anymore, you can always find a way to stay in a hotel. Go back and make a careful decision first."
Chen Hua glanced at him, this guy.
After all the members went back, Li Xia looked at their backs and said silently, "If I don't follow you, who else can I follow, brother?" As he said this, he glanced at him sideways and couldn't help laughing.
"We have been brothers for many years. If we are going to leave, we must leave together. With the environment in the hotel, maybe I can save enough money quickly to find a wife and live a life in this doomsday." Li Xia's heart was burning with excitement when he thought of life in the hotel. For some reason, there was hope there that the base could not give him, a hope that lived towards the sun.
When Chen Hua heard his words, a smile appeared on his resolute face. Yes, it was a wish that had not been fulfilled before the end of the world.
The two of them went back to their own residence, gathered their things, and packed some luggage. Actually, it wasn't really a residence, but rather a large hall with designated areas. The tents could only be placed in fixed locations, like a large bunk bed in disguise.
They didn't have much stuff, so they packed up quickly and returned to the service hall to wait. The agreed time was almost over, and thanks to the breakfast in the morning, they felt they could still hold on and were not particularly hungry even though it was almost afternoon.
The first one to come over was Zhao Jin, followed by Jiang Xiao. The only two girls in the team came over.
"What? Are you not welcome?" Zhao Jin couldn't help feeling unhappy when he saw that they didn't show any reaction.
"No, no, we are just surprised that you came so early." Li Xia expressed her injustice. They thought there would always be other team members coming first, but they didn't expect that they would be the first group.
"I don't think they'll come," Zhao Jin said, feeling somewhat disappointed. She lived very close to some of the team members' tents. "When I was packing up, I heard their families disagreed with them leaving the base. I even asked about it before I left, but they didn't respond."
So Zhao Jin came over by himself, but he didn't expect Jiang Xiao to come out with him. "Xiaoxiao, I didn't expect it would be just the two of us."
"I don't have any security staying here, so I might as well go out with the captain. I still have money for a hotel, and at worst we can go fight zombies together."
Jiang Xiao clearly realized that as a helpless girl, she had no way to protect herself in such a huge base. She was just an ordinary person with no special abilities and only a little strength that she had recently trained.
"Okay, it's almost time. If we rush to the hotel now, we might be able to have dinner." Chen Hua didn't say anything else. This was voluntary in the first place. It was their own choice whether to come or not.
The four of them carried their luggage and held iron bars in their hands, preparing to leave the base.
"Wait a minute! You four, stop!" Suddenly, someone shouted from behind. The four of them instantly felt their hair stand on end and a feeling of unease spread throughout their bodies.
